help delivering P2 Footage

[Luis_]

I'm in Florida and I need this P2 Footage in New York tomorrow.

The fastest I can think is to buy a walmart hard drive and mail it.

Does anyone know or use a service that they can recommend where I can upload 40gigs and have someone download it?

Even a fast connection will be slow for 40GBs - remember it goes both ways.

I like the HDD solution.

That's how it's done -- copy it to a hard drive and fed-ex that. Or fed-ex the card itself.

If you don't trust hard drives, FedEx the card.

If you don't trust FedEx, send HDD.

not familiar with the fee difference, but i think it might cost less to mail small light weight cards in plastic or pocket cases or small pelican cases or a couple of blu discs in small covers than a harddrive. might be a bit safer or more shock proof. you can add extra layers or protection on cards and not pay that much more than hard drives.

small chance of this being an option, but if it was at all, i'd go blu ray.

Yeah buy a cheap HD and FedEx- that's the safest, cheapest, best way. Don't ever FedEx your masters and unless you're on a direct Fiber link uploading would take forever.

Of course blu ray requires a reader and both sides.
